I could not pass these flowers by when I saw them in the store. Everything is so white here. We had about 10 inches of snow on Sun/Mon. I thought we were done, or I should say that I wished we were done. I have been perusing the seed catalogs, dreaming of the backyard being covered in pinks, reds, and purples and not white.
I am happy to report that my kitchen shelves have been installed. This entire project happened because I won a giveaway. I won a sweet little blue bird on Elizabeth's blog Creative Breathing. Once he arrived in my home I realized I had no place of honor for him. After a trip to Lowe's and several coats of paint I am happy to report my little blue bird is sitting pretty now. I was not sure about the paint color...but now I have to say that I love it. It feels very whimsical to me and being in the dead of winter that was just what I was going for...a little whimsy! Now...to find some more stuff to put on the shelves!
